Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Florence, SD.

A type of payment assistance that some alcohol and drug rehab programs can offer their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If a client can provide some degree of self-payment, these programs provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can lower treatment costs so that it is affordable for that particular client. This typically works like this: the individual will need to meet certain criteria and requirements for payment help and will have to provide information about how many dependents they have, proof of income, what their household overhead is, and the like. Based off this family and financial information intake administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Florence makes $18K a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas a person who has no dependents and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead must pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek further financial help to pay the lesser fee. Admissions staff can help individuals or their loved ones who are footing the bill for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid until after the client completes treatment.
